All these words describe Kayla.  She is enlisted in the Marines and leaves for bootcamp in S.C. in July.  She is in military intelligence with an emphasis on foreign languages.  She is an amazing young women and I am blessed that she chose me to do her senior portraits.  Kayla I hope you love your pictures – here is a sneak peek of a few!

Kayla’s session was done in her backyard and at the Great Northern Bike Trail.  Her dogs were so loveable – they wanted in the pictures until we wanted them to sit and then they wanted nothing to do with us!

Kayla has been in martial arts since she was 7.  She is now an assistant in the class and is revered and respected by the younger kids.  She is all about teaching self-defense to everyone. 

Brett is a senior from St. Viator in Arlington Heights. We had his session at Judson University in Elgin since it was a good midpoint for us both and he has played baseball at their field. His 1st session was rained out but we managed to get this one in contrary to what the weatherman was forecasting! Brett will be attending Illinois State University in Bloomington this fall where he will be playing shortstop on their baseball team! Way to go Brett!

And then a fun, goofy shot!!
